    In a effort to consolidate readership, concentrate clicks onto the most popular blogs and save on server costs and thus charge higher advertising premiums, Gawker Inc. has decided to promote more cross-posting in its blogs and eventually consolidate the blogs down to a more manageable and readable number.


    It has been decided that Fleshbot and Jezebel will be consolidated with Jalopnik, whose loyal readers and commenters are huge fans of (mechanical) porn and celebrities (mainly Megan Fox and Charlize Theron). There was also a discussion whether Gizmodo could be incorporated, but the robogasmic enthusiasm from Jalopnik will likely be short-lived after the Tranformers films are completed.

    @Mobius_1: Any site that is as goofily in-love with Apple as Gizmodo shouldn't be allowed anywhere near Jalop.


    Apple is the anti-Jalop of computers. No touching, no tweaking, DEFINITELY no hacking or hooning. Just use our computer the way we say to. Bastards.

    The first dozen seconds was brilliant...too bad the generic orchestral electronic music spoiled the rest.


    As for Monza, bring back the banking!

    @Flathead Smith:The math for a V-10 doesn't really work out very well and therefore are not particularly very smooth engines. Basically there is a power pulse every 72 degrees and will not run smoothly unless the cylinder banks are at this angle (unless the engineers resort to balance shafts which rob power). The Viper V-10 has an angle between the cylinder of 90 degrees and to me does not sound right and is kind of a rough running engine. It is my understanding that the Italians and others do use 72 ° between the cylinders, but I still don't like it. I think a V-8 and a V-12 sound much better and make more sense from an engineering standpoint.

    I can't wait until I get home to watch this.


    It appears as if this will sound awesome.


    The blank white square showing up on my browser at work has me salivating in anticipation.

    In reply to 1964 Chevrolet Corvair Monza
    Love it! I can't believe this is the first DOTS Corvair! I have a '64 as well- a 'vert I bought out in San Diego a couple of years ago for about 4000. Much better shape than this car, though- so 2900 may be a bit high. But they are exceedingly cool cars, and ever since I discovered the Rampside (pickup version) I had to have one. Well, I just picked one up! She's a project, at $600, but damn, they are hard to find!

    It's got a beak, it's shiny and kinda evil-lookin', and it appears to be called "Corva".

    As an interesting aside, Corvair will be the featured marque at next years Orphan Car Show in Ypsilanti.

    In reply to 1964 Chevrolet Corvair Monza
    My very first car ever was almost a Fiat 500, however my Dad chickened out about buying a 13-year old a car. So, two years later I ended up with a 1961 (or '62, I can't remember exactly) Chevy Corvair 700 turtle top sedan. And it cost all of two Benjamins.


    As I was 15, and lacking a license or a strong grasp of the whole gas-clutch-shift dance, I asked my brother to drive it home. It made it most of the way there, and I think we had to push it the rest. No big deal. I have related previously how this car, and the kindness of a stranger in mentoring my efforts to make the little six strong again engendered my love of wrenching on cars.


    It's true what they say; you never forget your first.
